Update: 4 August 2025
Based on your feedback, we've revised our concept design for the park. Changes include:
- A new public toilet and pathway.
- A spinning carousel in the play space.
- Separating the younger kids’ space from the older kids’ space to create distinct play areas, and adding more nature play to the younger area.
- Moving the running track to the side of the play space, and the running podium closer to the track.
- Several picnic tables and shade umbrellas.
- Stadium-style seating that connects the basketball court to the play space.

All other developments are unfunded and progress will be subject to budget being allocated through future Council Long Term Plans. For the first stage of the development there will be $3.4 million in funding available. The first stage will include a playground featuring a sandpit with a digger and buried 'fossils', a basket swing, wooden horses and a tube slide. Planning for the first stage is underway from July 2019.
